The STORY OF A WIG.

Huge Joke Enacted at the Expense OF 3
WouId-Be Literary Woman.
The mention of Cambridge reminds
me, although the connection is not very
close, how party of Americans were
taken through a European tour last
summer by a professor living in that
classical town, from whom, it may be
well to state, l did not hear this story.
In the party was one Mrs. A, in a sort
an authoress, who did not have the good
fortune to make herself popular with
her fellow travellers. One evening sew
eral of the company attended the thea
ter in Paris, and Mrs. A, conspicuous
ly arrayed with splendor somewhat
more youthful than her years war
ranted, rather rudely insisted in put
ting herself in the best place. Another
lady ventured mildly to protest that
Mrs. A. was taking up the room of two,
and that she, personally, was very
poorly placed, but nothing was effected
by this remOnstrance. Mrs. A, con-
conspicuous and triumphant, sat and
plumed herself in the box, until by
some dreadful chance she leaned too
low went the wig with which she was
accustomed to cover her scanty locks.
The unhappy woman uttered a shrek
and retreated to the back of the box,
where she covered her head with the
handkerchief and wept bitterly. Miss
B., the lady who had shortly before
tried to induce Mrs. A. to be reasonable
in her claims on the space in the box,
now came CALAMITY to the rescue. She
suppressed her laughter and began a
mental review of her French, so that
by the end of the act she felt competent
to graphic with the situation in the
tongue of the land. Leaning over, she
managed by calls, coughs and more or
less Ineligible EXPLANATIONS, to attract
the attention of the gentlemen in the
box below. The wig had fallen back
of their chairs, so that it was some time
before the Frenchmen could cOmpre-
bend what was the desire of the bright
eyed American lady who, with her face
wickedly full of mischief. was address
ING them from the box above. An I'M
derstanding was at last arrived at, how
ever, and with all the politeness and
grace of his nation one of the strangers
elevated the wig on the point of his
cane, and in the face of the whole
opera house it rose from one tier of
boxes to the other. The audience APP
plauded, the unfortunate owner of the
head-gear moaned in the corner, while
with the air of Goddess of Liberty
who stoops to rescue nation from a
depth of slavery, Miss B. leaned over
and secured the truant tresses. The
incident is, of course, less funny in the
telling than it was in the acting, but it
may be inferred that at least for a few
DAYS Mrs a. was somewhat subdued.
